Dancing On Ice's Matt Richardson taken to hospital after suffering memory loss from brain infection

Dancing on Ice star Matt Richardson has said he's been to hospital after a brain infection caused him to suffer memory loss. The 31-year-old says he fell ill after attending a Green Day concert in Dublin and took his Instagram to share the worrying news to his followers.

In the post he admits he is trying to piece together what happened and reveals that he can't remember anything from the event, with the infection also causing swelling on his brain. Alongside a photograph of him and his brother at the concert in Marlay Park, the comedian said he has contracted 'a lovely infection', the Mirror reports.

He wrote: "My brother and I went to see Green Day in Dublin last week. And I sadly can’t remember it as I’ve had a lovely infection which caused some wonderful affects to my brain and loads of amnesia. After a really cool trip to hospital I’m trying to piece it all together again. Hopefully the memories come back but if I owe you money, sorry you’re on your own x."
